Great place for Family get together

Family reunion & birthday get together. We were 11 people slept very comfortably, it is a huge Victorian house so be prepared for some drafty spots in the winter. Other than taking a bit to get warmed up we had a great time well appointed kitchen. Well supplied with towels for the crew we were. Really had a great time!

Beautiful comfortable space

There was plenty of room for our entire group of 9 to spread out. The beds were comfortable, the space was good for conversations and dining. We came during a cold snap, and the house was hard to heat, but we worked with the host to make things more comfortable. Also, it warmed up from record cold of 11 degrees Fahrenheit to 30, which made a difference.

Stepping back in time

We enjoyed this unique property which added wonderful memories to a large family gathering in Westminster. I only wish that we would have been at the house more over our rental period. The property delivered on its promises. Marty

My son's wedding

My son was getting married at a venue that was close by. I had family coming from Massachusetts and Canada but I wanted us to be together. It was a beautiful home. Very clean, tons of character! The beds were comfortable. The host was a great communicator and very much available during our stay. My mother absolutely loved the house!

Beautiful Historical Property

The property owner allowed me to rent the place to use as a location to get ready the day of my wedding. My entire bridal party stayed the night and we had a wonderful time. The historical charm of the property made for amazing photos! Mike was very responsive and was very hospitable! Would highly recommend, especially to those who appreciate history!

Nice property

Amazing historic home

We stayed at this historic mansion with several of our families from Michigan for our son’s wedding. Everyone was amazed at the history this home holds. This home is so large you could literally get lost exploring, plenty of room for everyone. Mike was a very responsive host.

Travel back in time

The house is so impressive - if you are a history buff this is the place for you! If the owner is willing, it's worth getting a tour from him. I was fortunate enough to get a tour - fascinating history and the subtle modernizations that have been done to maintain comfort. Beds were very comfortable, room temperatures were adjustable, house was spotless. I would definitely recommend this mansion to anyone that appreciates history.

A perfect pride and prejudice weekend

My friends and I threw a pride and prejudice themed party for our friends who are about to be married, and this house was the perfect setting! It is beautiful, massive, and has incredible grounds. The bar/game room was a particular highlight. There was plenty of space for 12 of us to sleep comfortably and a good kitchen to cook all of our meals for the weekend pretty easily. The house and furniture were a little old and rickety, but that is to be expected for this type of property and overall added to the vibes for the weekend. Mike was a very generous and responsive host who even ordered extra glasses and silverware when we weren't sure there would be enough table settings for everyone. Would definitely stay there again!

WONDERFUL

Mike, the host was amazing! He allowed us to have a small gathering to exchange our vows and the house and property were perfect! So much charm and character! I cannot say enough how wonderful the whole weekend was. We plan to be back in 5 years to celebrate our anniversary. We can't wait!

Perfect reunion spot

Trevanion is even more perfect for a reunion now than it was a year ago! Great place to reunite with friends. We actually never left the property from Friday to Sunday. Did yoga on the front lawn, explored the property and had plenty of space inside to eat and relax. There were 14 women and we were more than comfortable there. Mike is a wonderful host and very accommodating. We’ll be back.

Great place for renewing family time

The home was welcoming for our family to gather. Fully equipped kitchen and bathrooms, large living room, dining room and game room. We would have liked one more tv in the game room or one of the 6 bedrooms for the kids while we sat and visited on the patio or living room. Owner was very accommodating and appreciated his knowledge and pride of the area.

Great family place

We needed a place for our grown kids, their spouses and 2 grandkids, about halfway between a wedding venue and the babysitter. This was perfect! The host Mike met us in and showed us around… so many cool features to the house and furnishings! A square grand, Civil War relics found in the grounds and really awesomely equipped kitchen! The best part was how comfortable he made us feel! There were chicken on the property that we were all big fans of! Especially the babies! The house has plenty of space for gathering, wi-do worked well and we found the Bluetooth speaker much appreciated!

Fantastic experience in a beautiful location

The house was absolutely beautiful––spacious, inviting, and full of lots of little thoughtful extras and amenities. Mike was an exceptional host as well! He went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, kept in touch with us to be sure we were taken care of during the week, and made the check-in and check-out process as easy and accommodating as possible. This is truly a wonderful place to stay, especially if you appreciate older homes and the history & craftsmanship that accompany them. Thank you to Mike for helping my family have an unforgettable holiday at this property. We would choose to stay here all over again with zero hesitation, and I can only hope that we'll be able to return one day.

Historic Property

Amazing 200+ year old property in the historic Gettysburg area. Mike (the property owner) gave a complete tour of the property and provided fresh eggs from the chickens living (in a coop) on the property. Great time for a group of old friends who were shooting sporting clays in the area.

Family Reunion

My cousins and siblings gathered from 5 different states for a recent weekend reunion. The house allowed us plenty of space to sleep comfortably and explore. The rural location suited us perfectly - lots of parking, acres to walk, and fresh eggs each morning! There were plenty of towels and blankets for all, and the full kitchen was well-stocked with small appliances, utensils, and everything else we needed for our group of 10 adults over 3 days. The owner was on site each day: unobtrusive, but friendly and available. He made us feel very welcome from the date of the reservation on. None of us wanted to leave! We highly recommend this home experience!!!
